Beschreibung:
Accounts of Jack Cade's 1450 Rebellion, each inherently different and highly subjective, form the dominant entry in the London chronicles of the Fifteenth Century. In the first study of the primary documents related to the Cade Rebellion, Alexander L. Kaufman demonstrates how the chroniclers produced multiple representations of the event, and how these varying narratives should not be dismissed as inauthentic but read as clues to ideological positions on fifteenth-century politics.
Contents: Introduction; Ideologies of representation; 'Men calle hyt in Kente the harvyste of hedys': figurative language and Jack Cade's Rebellion; Jack Cade's carnivalesque Midsummer celebration; John Payn and the case of the purloined apparel; The characterization of Jack Cade; Jack Cade and the specter of Robin Hood; Conclusion; Appendix; Bibliography; Index.
